Shine Brightly for Christ
12Dear friends, you always followed my instructions when I was with you. And now that I am away, it is even more important. Work hard to show the results of your salvation, obeying God with deep reverence and fear. 13For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.
Work hard and show the results of your salvation.
Are you showing the results of your salvation everywhere you go?
How will others find Christ if you don't? You have a salvation story to tell, so tell how God lifted you out of your death spiral!
If you are not showing the results of your salvation are you obeying God with deep reverence and fear?
For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him.
Are you reluctant to please Him?
When He puts a desire on your heart do you follow it?
I can personally tell you when you do follow it He gives you a fulfillment only He can give.
Use the power He has given you and do what pleases Him.
Next time He gives you the desire to preach the Gospel to someone, do it!
Next time He gives you the desire to pray for someone, do it!
Next time He gives you the desire to help a widow or orphan, do it!
He has given you the power to do what pleases Him, use it!
Receive the fulfillment only He can provide!
Blessings, David
